As long as Li Chengqian’s order is not stopped, no matter what others say.

On the third day, except for the officials who stayed there, all the civil and military officials in Luoyang complained and put on their dresses and followed Li Chengqian to the south gate of Luoyang.

There is a saying that "born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and buried in Beimeng". "Beijing" refers to Beimeng Mountain in the north of Luoyang City. Because many emperors have been buried, some people think it is a rare Feng Shui treasure land in the world.

The Ministry of Rites originally chose a Fengshui treasure land on Beimang Mountain. It was changed by Li Chengqian on the side of the South Gate of Luoyang. Of course, this place would not be considered a Fengshui treasure land.

When all the officials came to Zhou Jin's cemetery, they found that Zhou Jin's tomb was very small and there were not many sacrifices, but they were standard seventh-rank officials.

Looking at Li Chengqian, he was just wearing black casual clothes, and he didn't look like he wanted to hold a funeral for his favorite ministers grandly.

This made the civil and military officials who followed him feel inexplicable. Of course, they dare not complain here. They just looked at the cemetery and smiled bitterly from time to time.

Li Chengqian walked around the cemetery with a crutch, and was very satisfied with it, so he turned around and looked at the ministers.

Seeing this, the ministers stopped and looked at Li Chengqian in a regular manner.

Li Chengqian nodded slightly and spoke solemnly: "Today, the Gu Wang invited all the Qing families here. I believe everyone knows why it is for?"

Seeing that the ministers bowed to him, Li Chengqian nodded and continued, "Regardingly, Zhou Jin was just a seventh-rank official during his lifetime, and it was not worthy of your condolences here.

However, the Gu Wang felt that Zhou Jin's death was very representative and worthy of the special book of history books in later generations, so he invited all your families to come here."

As soon as Li Chengqian said this, all the officials present were shocked. You should know that Zhou Jin was hit and killed in Li Shimin's bedroom because Li Shimin didn't believe him.

Later it turned out that Zhou Jin was right. The words that Zhou Jin said when he was dying were "no defeat to the Tang Dynasty" were shocking enough. Now Li Chengqian came to say this in person, which is to slap Li Shimin in the face and to be beaten forever!

Li Chengqian stopped and saw that no ministers stood up and continued, "Selecting virtuous people and appointing talents is the key to governing the country by the Holy Emperor.

Although Zhou Jin was born in a poor family and had a poor appearance, he was very talented and knowledgeable, loyal and righteous, and devoted himself to serving the country. He worked diligently in the Eastern Palace, without letting down the Tang Dynasty, the court, and even more so to Your Majesty and the Lone King.

There were many scholars like Zhou and Jin in the Tang Dynasty. They were either from poor families or were not well-known and were not valued by the court. They only had ambitions but had nowhere to display them.

There are also many people who have entered the officialdom because of their poor background, but they have to commit themselves to officials throughout their lives. Their hard work will always be someone else's, but if they make mistakes, they will be taken out to take the blame first.

Such people worked hard for the country and the people for a lifetime, but most of them were unknown. The Tang Dynasty could not forget them, the imperial court could not forget them, and His Majesty and the Lone King would not forget them.

...

…”

Li Chengqian said it for half an hour. The main contents are two points: one is that Zhou and Jin will not defeat the Tang Dynasty, and the other is that there are many people like Zhou and Jin in the Tang Dynasty. The former implies that Li Shimin will be defeated by him, while the latter implies that the current selection of Tang Dynasty and the unfair concept of the superiors in employing people. It does not give scholars who work hard to serve the country, leaving these people without a way to serve the country.

Many ministers present wanted to debate with Li Chengqian, but even they knew that at this time they would stand up and be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

Li Chengqian has become invincible in the matter of Zhou and Jin.

There are many events in history that were later called iconic events, or turning events.

The reason why these events can become landmark events or turning events is because these events can affect people's hearts, and things will change after the people's hearts change.

Just like now, many ministers are still unwilling to accept it, but they dare not stand up. And anyone with a little brain knows that in the future, poor scholars in the world will regard Li Chengqian as the sage master and pounce on the East Palace like a moth to serve as loyalty to Li Chengqian.

After Li Chengqian finished what he wanted to say, he felt relieved when he saw that no ministers came out to object.

He turned around and said to Wang Fangyi: "Go and bring the things prepared by the Lone King here."

"Abide by the order!"

Soon, the officials saw a car pushing in. A white marble stone tablet was erected on the car. Hundreds of people at the scene couldn't help but look at the car.

The officials standing in front soon saw the ancient servants carved with patterns on the stone tablet, which was definitely not something that ordinary craftsmen could do. The inscriptions were not big, and the entire stone tablet should have more than a thousand words.

Although I can't see what it is written clearly, the sharp and thin gold body can be recognized from a distance.

"Mr. Zhou's epitaph was actually written by His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Everyone could not help but sucked in air conditioning after seeing it clearly, and was amazed.

Later generations knew that during the Zhenguan period, there were two calligraphy masters Ouyang Xun and Chu Suiliang. In fact, the most recognized calligraphy masters at that time were Yu Shinan.

If the scholar-officials at that time could get the epitaph they wrote and engraved on the tombstone, they would be dead without regrets.

However, in the 18th year of Zhenguan, Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan both passed away for many years, and only Chu Suiliang was still there.

Li Chengqian wrote the poem "Ode to Plum" for Wei Zheng in a thin gold style. Anyone who went to Chang'an to worship Wei Zheng was truly impressed by Li Chengqian's calligraphy.

In the past two or three years, both the poem and the rubbings of calligraphy have been spread throughout the country, and even spread to the Western Regions and Goryeo.

This is a matter that must be written in history books, and how many people will copy and chant this stone tablet with more than a thousand words?

Wouldn't Li Shimin's face, which caused Zhou Jin to commit suicide, be beaten up?

Historical records can ensure the long-term spread of time, and everyone in the world has rubbed the copy and copied it to ensure the widespread spread of the world. This is a three-dimensional face-slapping model from time and space.

When all the officials were in pain for Li Shimin's face, the craftsman who transported the stone tablet had already installed Zhou Jin's tombstone on the pedestal. The four big words "Don't let the world down" were written on the front of the tombstone.

Seeing that Li Chengqian had done everything he should do, he walked in front of the stone tablet and lit three pillars of sandalwood. Li Chengqian inserted it with his own hands and turned on the carriage he was riding in.

Li Chengqian's carriage left leisurely, and the East Palace guards who followed him also followed him.

Left all civil and military officials standing in front of Zhou Jin's tomb in a daze.

After a while, Liu Xiangdao, the Minister of Personnel, walked out first, bowed to Zhou Jin's tombstone first, and turned around and left.

Seeing this, some of the officials went forward to pay homage to the tombstone of Zhou Jin, and some of them despise Zhou Jin's humble official position and turned around and left.

All the officials suddenly returned to Luoyang City.

Shortly after they left, several fast horses came from the south in dust. The leader was Changsun Wuji, who had just returned from the south, next to him was Changsun Chong, who was exiled to Qiongzhou with him.

Changsun Wuji had a good eye. He saw a newly erected white marble stele on the edge of the avenue from a distance. When they got closer, Changsun Wuji got off the horse and stood on the roadside and saw the carved "Losing the Tang Dynasty" engraved on the stone tablet.

"This was established by His Highness the Crown Prince." Changsun Chong said in surprise.

Changsun Wuji did not make any noise. While looking at the inscription carefully, he raised his hand to stroke his beard. After reading it, he sighed and turned over to the horse.
